'New California' declares its independence from the rest of state in secession bid

On Monday, a group proposing to split California into two states read its Declaration of Independence.The group, called New California, has been behind splitting the state up for several years and has proposed several different versions. Here are six things that could happen if New California becomes a state. "With God as our witness, honoring the foundational principles, we take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or objective of evasion, to stand together as free citizens of New California, to be a sovereign state of that nation which we hold dear, the United States of America".

"After years of over taxation, regulation, and mono party politics the State of California and many of it's 58 Counties have become ungovernable", the group.

To the members of the movement, the only solution is to form an entirely new state, New California.

The "founders" of New California released a statement yesterday, "Well, it's been ungovernable for a long time. High taxes, education, you name it, and we're rated around 48th or 50th from a business climate and standpoint in California", said founder Robert Paul Preston. They believe the state as a whole is "governed by a tyranny".

A group of activists have declared independence from California in hopes of creating a 51st state, according to KRON. Their area, which is predominately conservative and Republican, wants to separate from the other areas that are predominately brown and liberal. Just take a look at this recent Public Policy Institute of California map, which has some striking similarities to the New California proposal: In any event, Humboldt County is listed as an "interested" county by the group, whatever that means.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the Counties of New California, appeal to the California Legislature and the Federal Congress to pass resolutions to create the State of New California.
